How To Make Scones

Add flour, sugar, baking powder, baking soda and salt to a large mixing bowl then the butter will be added next. I always cut the butter into small pieces and place it in the freezer for a bit. Using cold butter is important just like it is when making pie crust or biscuits. Next, add the butter to the flour mixture and using a pastry blender, or a fork, mix until crumbly. Once crumbly, add the chopped cranberries and orange zest. Stir, then add orange juice and half & half and mix with clean, cold hands just until combined.

If needed, add the juice from the orange into the scone mixture. Once mixed, add flour to a clean surface and knead the scone mixture about 8 times. Form a round, flat disc like shape, about an inch or so thick. Cut into 8 equal pieces and place each scone on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper separating each one a bit.

Sprinkle with sugar and pop in the oven. Bake for about 20 minutes or until scones are browned. Remove from the oven and let cool a bit then drizzle with orange glaze and that’s it! Super easy, super delicious!
